I've had nothing but troubles with Google Search. They keep emailing me to tell me I have problems and they won't index my pages. When I look at the specifics, it's clear they're looking at the last version of my page that was hosted by Google Sites and are ignoring the current version hosted on a mix of GitHub and CloudFront. Even after deleting my Google Sites sites 8 years ago, they're still refusing to look at anything other than the stale cache they keep around for unknown reasons.
I think it boils down to "you're not Amazon or Facebook or the NYT, we don't care."
- dazc 3y agoYou should check the live page and look at the source code and headers that Googlebot is actually seeing. Sometimes something obvious will scream out at you. An extreme example, source code says 'noindex'. Less extreme, you aren't flushing the cache as efficiently as you think.
